Once Call of Duty quit being about World War 2 and finally gave them a taste of "modern warfare", there was no turning back. Not many of them even bothered with World at War. Microsoft will have to build a new IP based on modern warfare and do it better than the current fix, Call of Duty and convince/convert those fans. It's impossible. They will just have to settle for being king of the sci-fi FPS. |
Microsoft does not need to compete with COD. Why does it need to risk to fight afranchise that, frankly, gives as much or more profit for the company than Halo?
Many people pay for Live just to play COD. And there are so many companies launching modern combat FPS that would be insane to ignore Halo or other newIPs with new esperience just because everyone seems to want the "reality of modern warfare"
